Onyx is a member of the chalcedony family which also includes carnelian, agate, bloodstone, etc. Occurring naturally in a variety of colors, black onyx is polished to enhance appearance, a member of the quartz family.
Originally, almost all colors of chalcedony from white to dark brown and black were called onyx. Today when we think of onyx we often preface the word with black to distinguish it from other varieties of onyx that come in white, reddish brown, brown and banded. A variety of onyx that is reddish brown with white and lighter reddish bands is known as sardonyx.
Onyx is formed of bands of chalcedony in alternating colors. It is cryptocrystalline, consisting of fine intergrowths of the silica minerals quartz and moganite. Its bands are parallel to one another, as opposed to the more chaotic banding that often occurs in agates.
Sardonyx is a very striking stone with an incredibly varied range of patterns and colours. Sardonyx is a variation of onyx where the bands are red or white instead of black. Notable occurences are in Brazil, Mexico, USA, South Africa, Madagascar, India and Peru. The word Sardonyx is derived from the Greek, Sard meaning "reddish brown," and onyx meaning "veined gem".
Chemical Formula: SiO2; Mohs scale hardness: 6.5-7; Color: Brown, Orange, White;
Turquoise / Blue Howlite is dyed Howlite. It can also be known as Turquonite or Turqurenite. It has all the generic properties of Howlite but additional properties associated with its colour. Turquoise / Blue Howlite can aid the throat chakra, dream recall and enables the understanding of dreams. It can also assist astral travel during sleep.
Blue Howlite is sometimes called Turquenite because of its resemblance to Turquoise. It has the ability to calm your own anger and to absorb anger directed at you. Its soothing energy can also reduce tension and anxiety and can help still the mind before sleep or meditation. Blue Howlite placed around the bed can relieve insomnia caused by racing thoughts at bedtime.
Chrysocolla is attractive blue-green that provides a unique color to the mineral world. Chrysocolla is perhaps more appropriately a mineraloid than a true mineral. Most of the time it is amorphous meaning that it does not have a coherent crystalline structure. However at higher temperatures it does demonstrate a distorted crystal structure that seems to be composed of Si4 O10 sheets. Chrysocolla forms in the oxidation zones of copper rich ore bodies. The name Chrysocolla derives from Greek chrysos - gold and kolla - glue, referring to its use as a flux in soldering gold. The term was used from antiquity. Chrysocolla is often found in a matrix of quartz, in which case the optical and physical properties may be closer to those of quartz. Chrysocolla covered by druses of small sparkling quartz crystals is called "Drusy Chrysocolla" and is very popular for jewelry. It is found in Peru. Formula: Cu2-xAlx(H2-xSi2O5)(OH)4·nH2O: Category: Silicate mineral; Color: Blue-Green.
